Our Take

Bob Mould, the indie rock Godfather, has been churning out distorted bliss for over three decades, and this compilation album is a testament to his enduring influence. "Distortion: The Best Of 1989-2019" is a raucous rollercoaster ride through Mould's illustrious career, showcasing his evolution from punk pioneer to alt-rock icon.

From the blistering opening track "Wishing Well" to the anthemic closer "Sunshine Rock," Mould's signature blend of power pop melodies and searing guitar riffs is on full display. His lyrics, a mix of introspective musings and fiery political commentary, cut straight to the heart of the listener, leaving them simultaneously headbanging and soul-searching.

Standout tracks like "If I Can't Change Your Mind" and "The Descent" exemplify Mould's uncanny ability to marry sonic aggression with emotional vulnerability, creating a sound that is as cathartic as it is infectious. And let's not forget Mould's bandmates, particularly bassist Jason Narducy and drummer Jon Wurster, whose powerhouse performances elevate the music to new heights.

In a musical landscape oversaturated with manufactured pop stars and cookie-cutter indie bands, Bob Mould stands out as a true original, a rock 'n' roll maverick who refuses to be tamed. "Distortion: The Best Of 1989-2019" is a thrilling ride that will leave you breathless, exhilarated, and hungry for more. Bob Mould may be a veteran of the scene, but his music is as fresh and vital as ever.
